Philips used the Amperex name to distribute their new line of Dutch-made miniature tubes, such as 12AX7, 12AU7, 12AT7 to feed the American Market. Classic hi-fi brands such as Marantz, Fisher, and H. H. Scott, Inc., used Amperex valves. Amperex also produced the 6DJ8, 6922 and 7308 frame grid tubes. The 6DJ8/ECC88 was developed by Amperex in 1958 and originally developed for video and radar use, the 6DJ8 also excelled in audio amplifiers.
